This isn’t the first time Lazarus has used Zoom as a phishing vector. Nick Bax from the Security Alliance highlighted this scam in a March 11 X post. He explained that it usually starts with a few “VCs” on the call, who claim to have audio issues and claim the victim cannot hear them. If the victim falls for it, they’re directed to a new Zoom room via a fake link, where they’re prompted to download a “patch” to resolve the audio/video problem. Bax noted that this method has been used by threat groups to steal millions of dollars, and other hackers are now replicating these tactics.
